AutoCAD Map 3D :: Labeling Feature Class - Can Get A Symbol But No Text
Nov 30, 2011
I brought in an .SDF file containing survey points into a new drawing.
When I use "style" to format the labels I get the symbol displayed but the text doesn't show up till I hover over the point with my cursor, and they dont stay visible when I move the cursor away from the point.
When I use "Feature Label" I can get a symbol but no text, even if I hover the cursor over the point.
I have set mapsrtyle to "Enhanced"
I would prefer to use "Feature Label" because of the additional features it offers.

I am running Autodesk Map3D 2012 and I need to label my feature points no matter if they overlap or not.The Map3D documention refers to a check box that will allow what I believe I need- but I cannot find the checkbox in the style editor. Here's a clip from the Autocad documentation:
To allow labels to obscure points on the selected layer..In the Display Manager , select the point layer. Click the Style button.In the Style Editor, click Allow Other Labels To Obscure Feature Symbols On This Layer.

Is there a way to edit the text in a symbol instance without breaking the link to the symbol?
a really simplen example would be several instances of the same button graphic but with different labels.
I know these things are possible in Fireworks, but couldn't find a way to make it happen in Illustrator.

How to do a text warp like the top of a class ring similar to this image.
I have tried to work with the mesh envelope tool, but the letters get all distorted and don't run evenly around the corner. I can't seem to get a nice consistent look like this.

In civil 3d 2014 i need 2 sections (and a profile) all with different scales in the viewports (layout). Sizing of the labels and bands is all fine, only a text item is not updated. I need to display the scale (the number) for the current section (or profile), it works but the scale shown is always the scale from the model and not the scale from the viewport, so the different scaled sections all have the same text in the label, e.g 1:200, even if they are correctly scaled to different factors in defferent viewports.

I have created a Sketched Symbol "Replace by" with a prompt text where I must write the new drawing number.
I'm trying to use Ilogic function to copy the Prompted text into a custom drawing iProperty.
Here is the code :
Format:HTML Format Version:1.0 StartHTML: 165 EndHTML: 3471 StartFragment: 314 EndFragment: 3439 StartSelection: 314 EndSelection: 314
SyntaxEditor Code Snippet
SubMain()oInvDoc=ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
ForEachoSymbolInoInvDoc.ActiveSheet.SketchedSymbols
IfoSymbol.Name="Replace by"TheniProperties.Value("Custom", "Replace by")=???????EndIfNext
End Sub

Just installed 2013 Pro x64 and I'm doing a little testing. Using Tube and Pipe, I created a few mock pipe runs which are named according to a unique line number. When clicking on the Iproperties of any of these pipe runs, I can see that the value of model parameter "Part Number" now includes the name of the top level assembly and the line number, which is the name I assigned to the pipe run when I created it (see Fig 1 attached). Then in IDW I created a user defined symbol which contains text that I have directed to extract value of "part number" from the model properties, and fill in my symbol with that value (see Fig 2). The problem is, when I tag the pipe run with my custom symbol, the value in the symbol remains blank, instead of giving me the value of "part number". WHAT am I missing??

I have an elevation symbol that works OK as a regular block with attributes. Except it takes four of them to look right depending on orientation. But when I try to make just one dynamic block I run into the text/attribute thing.
How do you make a dynamic block with editable text?

The attached picture is me trying to balloon a part. I would like to just add some notes to the balloon so that I can update them manually but all I can find is to have a symbol. So I created a symbol, the insertion point for the symbol is shown. For some reason I get an extra number and the symbol offcenter. Why is this happening? What I'm really looking for is a balloon that is fully customizable so that I can just add text to the top and bottom and fill out the details.

Create a form with combo box that user can choose one option for the line notes, would be 15 lines with 15 combos, and if necessary the user should be ale to type something insted of using that pre defined option from combo.
I have 2 ideas to make that work, untill now im trying with this 1º but nothing yet.
First Idea:
Create some (15) boolean parameters to enable each line of this NOTE and when the user choose or type one option, that text go directly to one textbox into a Symbol with the 15 lines. I actually dont know how to make this connection, tried some stuffs that found here on forum, but some are too complex.
Second idea:
Instead of create parameters to control everything, i would create all the controls by iLogic, but that is harder then create many and many parameters ? And by this way, i dont know how to conect one INPUTLIST BOX with a pre defined Global form, or, is easier to create a form by ilogic (if that is even posible ofc) ? And still dont know how to make the connection with the chosen option and the text box.
That is just to "centralize" all my notes, that can be variable for each drawing, that way i dont need to have too much symbols for each kind of note, or even have to type everytime that i need one diffent. Would be nice if the user could just choose them in the right sequence he wants.

With iLogic, define some pre notes and when the user choose one option some notes are chosen too.The idea now is: Create a text direct inside on Sketched Symbol OR edit some textfields inside the Symbol.
The symbol could be one existent, so its not necessary to create it.
I got a code to create the text, and that works perfectly! Just what im trying now is create this text into the Symbol... I've tried many ways with reference from: URLs....The code to create the tet im usnig is this one:
' a reference to the drawing document. ' This assumes a drawing document is active. Dim oDrawDoc As DrawingDocument oDrawDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument ' a reference to the active sheet. Dim oActiveSheet As Sheet oActiveSheet = oDrawDoc.ActiveSheet ' a reference to the GeneralNotes object Dim oGeneralNotes As GeneralNotes oGeneralNotes = oActiveSheet.DrawingNotes.GeneralNotes Dim oTG As TransientGeometry oTG = ThisApplication.TransientGeometry ' Create text with simple string as input. Since this doesn't use ' any text.
[code]....
but, if i could just edit one existent text filed into the symbol would be great too and one "extra doubt", in all the codes that i get here, i have to erase the "public sub" and the "set" from all code, am I doing something wrong ? I'm running directly from the iLogic window.

I want to fill the text box with white color so that the hatching in the views does not interfere with the text inside my text symbol.
as per my understanding this is not possible.. I thought of an alternative-- draw a rectangle instead of text box but was not able to find a way to make it fit to the length of the text. Note that : the text will be varying and so the text length.

My iLogic ability is quite limited outside of what I use regularly?
I am trying to change the font style in every text definition in all my sketch symbols in one go. Actually I have started it based on only a selection set but I would be happy with just all symbols too. Below is where I got to, I am stuck on the For Each line to cover each text box in the symbol. Some of the other syntax may not be right either but I can't test it all the way through.
Dim oDoc As DrawingDocument: oDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocumentDim oSheet As Sheet: oSheet = oDoc.ActiveSheetDim i As LongDim oSymDef As SketchedSymbolDefinition: oSymDef = oDoc.SketchedSymbolDefinitions.Item(i)Dim oText As TextBoxesFor i = 1 To oDoc.SelectSet.CountFor Each oText In ............oSymDef.TextBoxes.Item(i).FormattedText ="<StyleOverride Font='ARIAL'>...< /StyleOverride>"NextNextInventorVb.DocumentUpdate()
Also the XML style override is not complete if this is the only way to achieve this result.

I have been given the task of figuring out a way to have etching placed on our parts to show the part number of the part. The end goal is to get the parts laser cut but have the part number etched into the part.Is there a way to convert text (i.e. 12345) to a sketched symbol that the punch feature would recognize and then add it to the library? Right now we are using 2012 but will be upgraded to 2014 within the next 6 months.

Program, AutoCAD 2010 VBA..I normally use the following code to get attributes from a drawing.
Public Sub array1Initialize()
For Each elem In ThisDrawing.ModelSpace
If elem.EntityName = "AcDbBlockReference" Then
If elem.Name = "SPREAD SHEET INFO" Then
[code]....
The attributes are in an array called array1. This works in my form module but when I move it to a class module I get array1 is not readable. is there any sample code that gets attribute in a class module?

I am working with a country grid shape file that has 2994 grid numbers. I am trying to convert the shape file to an autocad image. However, about one-third of the feature ID's do not save into the new autocad drawing. Is there a way to just select a portion of the shape file to convert into a drawing? Or just convert all the feature id's and not the grid shapes?

What I would like to do is create a custom dialogue for each of 3 or 4 standard sketch symbols we use on a regular basis. I'd like to load 'suggsted' values out of an excel spreadsheet and allow the user to pick from them or enter in a custom text string if required. The values would then become part of the sketch symbol.
I've spent some time looking into iLogic rules and I think I've determined that they're not flexible enough to do what I want.
If I'm correct, it is possible (or a good idea) to do this using a VBA macro? I'm a little hesitant to go down the full blown add-in route. While I'm pretty confident I could work it out.

I used it to clear out the old vertex information, and then add new vertex points.All works on the screen until you use the undo command then all the vertex points are lost. Just created new polylines and deleted the old to fix it. Not ideal as I was storing the ObjectId’s in Xrecords, which now have to be updated with the new id’s
